After this last batch of rulings by our Supreme Court aka New Masters, I have zero faith they will render the correct decision based on the Constitution.

There are no "emanations of penumbras" there to divine, therefore they will merely throw out the clear meaning of the original documents, Founding Fathers' commentary, such judicial lions as Chief Justice Story and centuries-long established precedent and law. Instead, they will come up with some new mumbo-jumbo saying none of the above meant what was plainly wrote and said, and therefore they are changing it to what they want it to say!

A pox on these jerks - purposely leaving out Rhenquist, Scalia and Thomas, of course!

"...therefore they will merely throw out the clear meaning of the original documents, Founding Fathers' commentary, ...."

Justice O'Connor said in her recent tv interview that she does not normally refer to the original documents, etc. -- since things like DNA, night vison, thermal imaging. etc. were not known then.

I was disapointed, since the original documents show the intent and basis for the wording.(only saw a short portion of her interview.)
